Movie Review: I was expecting something else
Summary: 2 Stars
That video didn't do it for me. I found the subject was treated in a shallow way and I was expecting a little more depth.

Movie Review: Found in China
Summary: 4 Stars
Thank goodness we watched this movie before our adopted 5y/o saw it.We purchased this movie thinking it was going to be a "travelogue" for kids returning to China. It was much more intense. I think it should be just seen for the adults in her life contemplating on whether or not to return to China and if we do what should we expect from ourselves and our child. The movie shows the girls and their families on a return trip to China on a group trip with an agency specializing in trips for adopted children returning to China. The questions the movie helps parents to consider are 1) whether or not you and your child are ready to take the trip to china 2) what issues may you and she have to deal with when you are in China such as: a) transracial adoption b) China's one child policy c) idea of "abandonment".etc
This travel agency took with them an asian social worker who help the girls deal with their issues they faced on their return trip to china
as some girls a) visited there finding place b) met with their caregivers/foster parent/nanny c) met the person who found them d) visited the orphanage to see other children waiting for forever families e) how internal their connection with China really is f) would they be able to find their birthmom while in China etc.
Be ready to think about these issues prior to making this visit to China as the movie goes on to show the parents and their children at home in the USA after their visit from China. This movie get you thinking about good topics to help you make a decision on that return trip to China.
Movie Review: Highly recommended
Summary: 5 Stars
As a parent of a 10 year old chinese daughter I would highly recommend this dvd. I previewed it and then decided it was completely appropriate for her to see. After the video she was full of questions and we had a great conversation about the trip that I want to take her on when she is 12. I had actually been planning on waiting until she was 15-17 but have since changed my mind after watching the video. A MUST see for anyone with an adopted Chinese child thinking of visiting China. Well done.Movie Review: Found in China DVD is well worth watching.
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD was exactly what I was looking for. As the parent of a child adopted from China, it was wonderful to see other adopted Chinese children the age of my daughter visiting their homeland eight or ten years after coming home to the US. I was stunned to see a family I know well in part of the DVD, which made it extra special. I plan to watch this multiple times and hope my daughter will learn to love it as well. Found in China. It was very well done. Thank you for this excellent documentary. Movie Review: Done well and with heart
Summary: 5 Stars
Definitely worth buying for anyone interested in the subject of kids adopted from China returning for visits to the land of their birth. In this documentary, the parents, kids and learned commentators all have thoughtful things to say, and the kids are really charming.
